doubleshot Specifics.

This assumes an S-OFF device, and you just want a fresh start on your doubleshot with your dev computer.

--------

1 - Fresh (S-OFF)

** for an already S-OFF device.

What you need:

- MicroSD card.

- Stock Image

How to make it:

1 - Download the Stock Image to your computer.

2 - Rename it to PG59IMG.zip

3 - Format your MicroSD card in the computer.

4 - Transfer the image from the computer to the MicroSD card.

How to use it:

NOTE: Make sure you have a full battery!!!

1 - Power off the doubleshot. Remove the battery and MicroSD card.

2 - Insert new card from above. ( or back up current card, make, and re-insert )

3 - Replace battery and backplate.

4 - Holding the 'Volume Down' button, press the 'Power' button.

5 - Wait for the loading bar to fill.

6 - When ready, it will ask you if you want to start the update.

7 - Select yes by pressing the 'Volume Up' button. Press 'Volume Down' if you just realized you have a low battery.

8 - Allow the update time to flash to your doubleshot.

9 - Let it sit for a minute or two after it says finished, then press power to reboot.

10 - Follow on-screen instructions until finished.

Then:

1 - Reboot the doubleshot.

2 - When fully booted, open the settings menu.

3 - Go to "SD & phone storage" and choose "Factory data reset"

4 - Yes, wipe the sdcard too.

5 - Follow on-screen instructions until finished.

You now have the doubleshot as close to factory as you can get for testing. You will still have S-OFF but stock recovery.

--------

Replacing Stock Recovery: Clockworkmod

If you have S-OFF but stock recovery, the easiest method is to:

1 - Follow the instructions in This Thread to get temp root.

2 - Without rebooting, add your market account to the device.

3 - Install ROM Manager from the market.

4 - Flash Clockworkmod through ROM Manager.

5 - What you do next is up to you (but a clockworkmod backup isn't a bad idea.)
